We enthusiastically encourage all eligible authors to actively participate in the AGE meeting, which you can find more information about here: https://www.americanagingassociation.org/annual-meeting. Eligibility and Submission Process:To be eligible for the "GeroScience Outstanding Publication Awards," original research papers and reviews must have been published in GeroScience (the official journal of the American Aging Association) during the preceding three years, up to March 1 before the AGE meeting in the current year. Authors wishing to be considered for these awards must submit an application that includes the research paper and a curriculum vitae (CV) as a combined PDF file to Assistant Editor Zsuzsanna Tucsek, PhD (email: [email protected]). Trainees are encouraged to include a support letter from the last/corresponding author to enhance their application. The submission deadline for the 2025 awards is March 15, 2025 Award selection:The selection of awardees will be carried out by an impartial Outstanding Publication Award Committee. This committee comprises five Editors delegated by the Editor-in-Chiefs, the Editor-in-Chiefs themselves, and Deputy Editors. To ensure a comprehensive and equitable evaluation process, the committee will consider both quantitative and qualitative assessments. Quantitatively, the Field Weighted Citation Index (FWCI), published by Elsevier/Scopus, will be used to objectively assess the scientific impact of eligible papers. Qualitative factors, such as the significance of the research, will also be taken into account. This balanced approach guarantees the recognition of the best contributions to GeroScience.
